Pierre Boulez's Le marteau sans maître, evoking with instruments and voices the surrealist poetry of René Char, was composed in 1955, at the height of European serialism. For 20 years, nobody could figure out what serial procedures Boulez was using, but people still wanted to hear the work, and that's the key to understanding it. More than tone rows, it depends on colors, dashes of world music styles (including the Balinese gamelan that perenially fascinated French composers), and even extramusical references. There are various recordings by Boulez himself, and these remain recommended, but he ought not to have a monopoly, and this entry from the Ensemble Orchestral Contemporain under Daniel Kawka is most welcome. It stands apart in several ways from earlier recordings, most notably in the sound; the Château de Goutelas, an actual castle in the small town of Marcoux in the Loire départment, gets the listener away from hermetically sealed Parisian environments and lends the music an attractively mysterious air without losing a bit of the color. Mezzo-soprano Salomé Haller takes the ambiance into account with her readings, which hover in the shadows of the music, so to speak, rather than standing front and center as vocalists will. Another draw is the closing work, the B-Partita of Philippe Manoury (2016), subtitled "in memoriam Pierre Boulez." This is clearly in the Boulez vein but extends his language in several directions, toward IRCAM electronics on one hand and with hints of popular music on the other. This is a nice find for those who believe performances of Boulez's music require the composer's presence.
